CHORD & SONGWRITING CHEAT SHEET

Welcome to this Lego House Guitar Tutorial by Ed Sheeran! This song has been requested immensely and is one that has always just slipped my mind. It was one of Ed’s breakout hits and is a great song ballad. The song is comprised of fingerpicking throughout however in this video I teach 2 different versions.

CAPO ON 4TH - EASY CHORD VERSION
------------------------------------------------------
[Verse]
G Em7
I'm gonna pick up the pieces,
G
and build a lego house
Em7
when things go wrong we can knock it down
G Em7
My three words have two meanings,
G
there's one thing on my mind
Em7
It's all for you
[Prechorus]
G Em7
And it's dark in a cold December, but I've got ya to keep me warm
G Em7
and if you're broken I will mend ya I'll keep you sheltered from the storm
that's raging on
[Chorus]
G Em7
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
D
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
Cadd9
and out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
G Em7
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
D
I'll do it all for you in time
Cadd9
and out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
[Verse 2]
G Em7
I'm gonna paint you by numbers
G
and colour you in
Em7
if things go right we can frame it, and put you on a wall
G Em7 G
And it's so hard to say it but I've been here before
Em7
and I'll surrender up my heart
and swap it for yours
[Chorus]
G Em7
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
D
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
Cadd9
and out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
G Em7
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
D
I'll do it all for you in time
Cadd9
and out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now

Don't hold me down
D Cadd9 D
I think my braces are breaking and it's more than I can take
[Prechorus]
G Em7
And it's dark in a cold December, but I've got ya to keep me warm
G Em7

that's raging on
[Chorus]
G Em7
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
D
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
